Chapter 142


In the bedroom, Qi Ji walked to the side of the bed after taking a shower.

When Xue Jingrui came in, he had laid out a mattress on the floor, but his mind was already brainstorming.

He thought of several ways to get to sleep on the bed, but one by one they were rejected. He originally thought of pretending to look pitiful, saying his back and waist were aching and uncomfortable sleeping on the floor.

But then he thought, he was older than Qi Ji after all, so if he said his body wasn't doing well, how would Qi Ji look at him in the future?

Suddenly, Xue Jingrui's eyes lit up when he saw a cup of water on the table nearby. Could he...?

"Qi Ji, do you want some water?" Xue Jingrui asked.

"Big Brother Jingrui, I drank some earlier tonight, I'm not thirsty now," said Qi Ji, lying down and pulling the thin blanket over herself, ready to sleep.

If she wasn't thirsty, then he was relieved.

Xue Jingrui walked over to the table, picked up the cup and said, "I'm a little thirsty."

Qi Ji was engrossed in reading a comic on her phone at an exciting part and didn't have time to pay attention to Xue Jingrui.

Seeing that Qi Ji didn't respond, Xue Jingrui carried the cup of water and walked toward his mattress. As he was about to reach it, he pretended to stumble, lurching his body forward and throwing the cup out of his hand.

Not a single drop was left in the cup - all the water splashed onto the blanket. The commotion was so loud that Qi Ji looked over.

"Big Brother Jingrui, are you okay?" Qi Ji got out of bed.

"I'm fine, but my blanket isn't."

The cup had landed on the blanket, leaving a large wet patch around it that wouldn't dry anytime soon.

"How will you sleep now, Big Brother Jingrui?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Jingrui felt like crying for a moment. How would he sleep? Of course he wanted to sleep on the bed. He was puzzled - shouldn't the young lady let him sleep on the bed?

"It's okay, I'm young and my body is sturdy. Sleeping in a damp blanket for one night is no big deal." Xue Jingrui's words sounded tough, but his expression made him seem pitiful.

Qi Ji couldn't bear it anymore.

"If it really doesn't work out, you can sleep on the bed."

At Qinghe Villa, a family of three lay on the bed.

Shen Yin didn't answer, just hugging him tightly, her face against his back. So she could be vulnerable and afraid too.

"Easy now, what happened?" At this point, Xu Xiuhe couldn't believe Shen Yin was just hungry.

"Nothing happened, I just feel you're so, so good and I want to..."

Seeing Shen Yin's actions, Xu Xiuhe naturally understood what she wanted.

For the first time she was taking such initiative - how could he refuse?

The man turned off the stove, and they stayed in the kitchen.

Xu Xiuhe felt Shen Yin's passion.

"Don't worry, no matter what happens, I'll be by your side."

"Okay."

Outside, the sky was gradually brightening - the first light of summer at 4am.

The two of them finished.

"Am I really silly?" Shen Yin asked.

Xu Xiuhe kissed Shen Yin's neck, his voice slightly hoarse but unbearably gentle, "How could my wife be silly? She's the smartest, most capable woman in the world."

Shen Yin looked at the half-cooked meal and asked, "Shall we continue making it?"

"Of course, the water has cooled down. I'll reboil it and make you some clear noodle soup. Eat it, then take a shower and get some rest."

Shen Yin put on her clothes, folded her arms, and leaned against the wall, watching Xu Xiuhe's every move.

In 10 minutes, a bowl of fragrant clear noodle soup was placed on the table, and Shen Yin walked over.

"The noodles smell so good."

"My mom used to make them for me all the time, so I learned how to make them over time."

Shen Yin took a sip, and it tasted delicious.

"I can't finish it all. Come and share it with me."
